Degree Planning Advice For Research (Upper Level) Credit

[Dnightowl]

I do not know of any course called Research at Excelsior but I can give guidance on how to find what they want. As a current Excelsior student, I will walk you through how I locate what I need for each category. Once you try the first time, it makes it really easy to locate after that, but unfortunately it does not help with finding outside sources that could transfer.

Log into Student Portal
Click MAPlanner on left index, then click Access MAPlaner button in middle of screen.
Click Create Plan by Requirement button
Click Start Button next to Research

This should bring up a list of Excelsior courses that will qualify for the "Research" requirement. My guess is that the research requirement just means that one of your courses has to be research based. An example for me is Organizational Behavior is a requirement, but once I add the course to my Plan, it slots into my Arts & Sciences section, but also check marks the Organizational Behavior requirement.

Thank you so much!

Greetings Everyone,

I have been on this forum for awhile now, and I am seeking some advice. I have placed my current information down below for your review. 

***BREAK****

Location: Tennessee
Your Age: 33
What kind of degree do you want?: Bachelor of Science in Healthcare Management

 My advice is to get a BS in Liberal Arts from EU then pursue a Masters in Healthcare Admin at another graduate school. The BS should check the box for OCS.
Good Luck

Copy. This is a solid plan. Thank you so much!

Actually, that's a very good idea for the Excelsior BSLA, you have the Info Lit and Cornerstone already completed, you just need the capstone and transfer in the rest through ACE/NCCRS credits available for cheap, easy, fast.  I would get them to change the program and get an evaluation completed for you, then post what you have remaining for the BSLA.  You can find a WGU Masters in Healthcare Administration or MBA Healthcare Management for about $5K each if you finish them in a term, if you are not in the US, you can complete the Walden MHA for about $6K in a term as well...

Copy. All three of you have helped me immensely. Thank you so much! I appreciate y'all!
